Miss Philippines Crowned Miss Universe 2015 After Host Steve Harvey Mistakes Ms. Colombia as Winner
E ONLINE ^ | 12/20/2015 | by Mike Vulpo

What in the world just happened?!

That's what everyone and anyone is thinking Sunday night after watching the dramatic—and by we really mean dramatic—final moments of Miss Universe 2015.

At first, host Steve Harvey made it perfectly clear that Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutiérrez was the winner. There were hugs, cheers, flowers, a standing ovation and everything you expect from a happy moment.

Things quickly took a turn, however, when Steve stopped the party.

"Okay folks, I have to apologize. The first runner-up is Colombia," he explained as the camera panned to Miss USA and Miss Philippine. In other words, Miss Universe 2015 is Miss Philippine Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach!

Yes, it was awkward. Yes, the camera crews, audience and host didn't know what to do. And somehow the show went on.

"Listen folks, let me just take control of this. This is exactly what's on the card," Harvey shared while holding up the results. "I will take responsibility for this. It was my mistake. It was on the card. Horrible mistake. It is my mistake."

He continued while trying to hold back tears, "Please don't hold it against the ladies. We feel so badly but it's been a great night."

Great night? More like unforgettable night!

Story developing...more to come!

For those who don’t know ...

The pageant, was owned by Donald Trump for years and broadcast by NBC. However, following Trump’s anti-immigrant comments, NBC sold its 50 percent stake to Trump.

Donald Trump later sold 100 percent of his shares to William Morris, who now owns the Miss Universe pageant.

I see that they are continuing Trump’s racist practice of only naming Earthlings as Miss UNIVERSE!
